Nice base for exploring Naples
We really enjoyed staying here. It's a comfortable apartment where everything functions well, but it also feels like a genuine lived-in home - which it was for Vincenzo's grandparents! We liked the elegant furniture and the many pictures of rural scenes painted by Enzo's grandfather. The apartment is on the first floor, so not too many steps to climb, and there is a small lift which is handy for shifting heavy cases. It's a good neighbourhood, not as posh as nearby Vomero, but not as 'lively' as the areas closer to the city centre. The metro is indeed about ten minutes' walk away: do buy your tickets at the tabacchi on the way down as the ticket machines at the station clearly haven't worked for some time. There are plenty of little shops in the area plus a big Carrefour about fifteen minutes' walk away which saved us on a Sunday night when everything else was closed. Enzo is a super chap - reliable, charming and good-humoured. We would certainly stay here again.
